The east winds take us to a lovely London town and along with us we encounter Tony Goldmark of Escape from Vault Disney! In today's ep, we examine the various unbuilt Mary Poppins attractions in Disney history from Tony Baxter's Jolly Holiday ride to EPCOT's cancelled UK pavilion expansion!
We journey to Murcia, Spain and examine an unbuilt bottom-up Paramount theme park with attractions based on movies you've heard of like Mission Impossible and Grease, and also based on films you've never heard of like Stardust and FairyTale!
In our fiftieth episode, we take a look at a myriad of Disney World projects that were never meant to be, but still announced by the company. Topics include: the Main Street Theatre, the Epcot Festival Center, Hyperion Wharf, Pop Century's Legendary Years, Reflections A Lakeside Lodge, the Play Pavilion and Spaceship Earth's most recent tabled redo!
We are joined with Garfield cartoonist and expert Ryan Estrada to explore a never-made Indiana theme park called Garfield's American Adventure! Does the fat cat get represented well or should this be shipped in a box to Abu Dhabi?
Merry Julymas!
Once again we let Ryan Dorman chose a film for us to discuss, and this year he has chosen David Lynch's 1977 surrealist body horror Eraserhead! How much about parenting will we learn? Find out today!
Today we look at Disney's attempt to create a Harry Potter land, filled with completely underwhelming rides and attractions! Also we check out Universal's Villain Con: Minion Blast!
This Fourth of July week we take a look at Marc Davis' original 1975/1976 concepts for The American Adventure, including an omnimover ride with an original song!

We dive in to Atlantis as we look at the proposed thrilling redo of Disneyland's Submarine Voyage: the Atlantean Encounter, based on 2001's Atlantis the Lost Empire. Will thrill-seekers escape the clutches of the Leviathan? Will we address the recent Titan Submersible incident? Well, the answer for that last one is no since the episode was recorded several weeks prior. That we just call bad timing!
We chopper back over to Islands of Adventure to take a look at the many possible replacements for the public domain land The Lost Continent! Could it be Rudolph, Harry Potter or even Willy Wonka?
